No. You're missing the point. The design of the thing is functional. The plan is not to shoot you. The plan is to get the girl. If there's no girl, then the plan, well, is like the room.

I've had your package in my car all ready to go for a week now, so it's just a matter of stopping at the post office to mail it.

ION, there's a great slideshow of photos from Obama's Denver speech yesterday here.

btw, is "Friend of Dorothy," "Family" or "Betty" still used in gay culture? I feel so out of touch these days....

A youngish (maybe mid-30s) cab driver in Vegas this summer asked my lady bandmates and I if we were "family" but I thought it was kind of an old-fashioned term.

Hivemind: is there a standard conversion of words to minutes when you're writing a speech? I need to write a 15-minute talk (that will not actually be delivered), and have no idea what ballpark to be thinking about in terms of word or page count.

I've been following it at Cute Overload, but I'm sure there's a more direct link somewhere else.

I think the rule of thumb is two minutes a double-spaced page.
